Check to make sure that the pipes to be connected to the trap have been installed properly. 1. Is the pipe diameter suitable? 2. Is the piping where the trap is to be installed horizontal (for the SS1NL/SS1NH) or vertical (for the SS1VL/SS1VH)? 3. Has sufficient space been secured for maintenance? 4.
Operation Principles of air and condensate discharge: 1. Start-up Air and Cold Condensate Discharge At start-up, before steam is supplied, the system is cold and the bimetal air vent strip is contracted, holding the float off of the valve seat. This allows for the rapid discharge of air and cold condensate through the valve when steam is first supplied to the system.
Use only under conditions in which no freeze-up will occur. Freezing may damage the product, leading to fluid discharge, which may cause burns or other injury Refer to the product nameplate for detailed specifications.
